Evidence considered
- No comparable evidence considered; application dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
Tenant submitted evidence: no. Landlord submitted evidence: no.
Tribunal's reasoning
The Tribunal found it had no jurisdiction to determine a market rent. The landlord had served a Section 13(2) notice proposing a rent increase, but as the tenancy was still within its fixed term and the agreement contained its own rent review clause, the statutory procedure under sections 13/14 of the Housing Act 1988 did not apply. No market rent was therefore determined.
